I am another student on here; I am really impressed with your work especially your dissections exercise! I feel inspired to put a similar amount of effort in.

Much as we understand the intent was to spread positivity and encourage Grumdere, it's important that you heed the warning that would have been displayed as placeholder text in the textbox where you wrote your comment. To quote it:
"Please be sure to only comment with helpful feedback. Do not reply with jokes or empty compliments, as you will reduce the student's chances of getting real feedback."
We've gone ahead and marked your comment as unhelpful, so that the system does not incorrectly assume the student already received a critique.

Arrows
1. Mistake on lines: pass
2.Arrows not compressing: pass
3.Lineweight related: pass
Organic Forms
1.Mistakes on lines: pass
2.Not following the simple form they need to be; they should be 2 identical balls connected by a tube of consistent width: pass
3.Degrees of the ellipses/contours don't change, they stay static: pass
4.Not hooking contours: pass
5.Misaligned ellipses and not drawing the axis line: pass
6.Ellipses not touching the boundaries, or getting out of them: pass
Texture Analysis
1.Doing dotting or any kind of hatching to achieve transition: pass
2.Not doing a seamless transition on the gradients, if either the black bar on the left or the white bar on the right are really easy to spot because the transition isn't smooth enough: pass (very well done in this case)
3.All marks on this exercise should be done purposefully, and by looking at the reference before, so scribbling or doing non planned marks is a mistake: pass
Disections
1.Not wrapping the textures around the form: pass
2.Not breaking the silhouette: pass
Side note: Great rendering of the textures!
Form Intersections
1.Repetition of lines, lines not being confident, not planing lines, not ghosting, clear divergences, not drawing through ellipses, etc.: a few shapes aren't drawn through
2.The forms need to have consistent foreshortening: pass
Organic intersections
1.Not drawing simple forms. On this exercise the forms should be kept simple, just like in the previous organic forms exercises. 2 identical balls connected by a tube of consistent width: pass
2.Shadows sticking to the forms. The shadows have to follow the form of object they're being casted on, not the form of the object that casts it: pass
3.Not ghosting lines, not hooking the lines, adding linweight by tracing instead of drawing confident lines etc.: pass
4.Not drawing through forms. You should always draw through forms, just like in the form intersections exercise: pass
5.Drawing non stable forms: pass
Next Steps:
Overall you've grasped and followed through the lesson very well, also props to the great rendering of the textures! You can move onto lesson 3.

Thank you!

The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw
Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"
It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
